about

"To my ears, Arckanum, the one man band run by Shamaatae, create the perfect metal: primitive, raw and deeply rooted in dark forests and norse history." - SVT (Sweden)

ARCKANUM is one of the metal underground's most respected entities, and its new album 'Fenris Kindir' is a vile black creature. ARCKANUM melds influences from early black and death metal with inspiration from Old Norse tradition, runic witchcraft, and more. 'Fenris Kindir' is less a set of songs than a collection of shadowy beings with each having its own distinct breath of darkness. Beware of 'Fenris Kindir'!
